Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: PROD without TEST
David-
The only systems where we don't have a test database are a couple of = legacy DBs which were frozen long ago. Yeah, upgrades without a test = system are pure insanity, but that's only an occasional problem. I assume = those databases don't exist in a vaccuum, what about software development = and testing for goodness sake? ESPECIALLY if you're a 'rapidly changing' = shop!

Hi All,
This is more of a survey than a question, but how many of you DBAs out
there who are administering production databases that don't have a test
database to go with it?
We are a new but rapidly changing shop and we have a bunch of small
to medium size databases that are running without a test database. This=20
makes DBA tasks like upgrade more difficult. I am having a hard time =
trying=20
to get the management to allocate the resources for this. I wonder how =
other=20
DBAs are doing to deal with situations like this.
TIA David
